skin problems
Natalie asked:


I rescued a chocolate lab and when we got her from the rescue agent she had a small scab on her left ear(right at the end). It is a scab and will fall off and then be bright red again and start the whole process over again. It is now getting bigger and is on the right ear as well. What could cause this? We have tried a couple of antibiotics but nothing is clearing it up. She also has what appear to be bright red zits/pimples on her nose. If anyone has any answers/solutions to these skin problems I would really appreciate it.
We did take her to a vet and they said they have never seen anything like this before and gave her some medicine that does not seem to be helping.
